Shooting Victim: 9 Year-Old Christina Taylor Green Was Born on 9-11

Christina Taylor Green, nine-year-old victim in today’s Tucson shootings, once was an infant designated to be a “Face of Hope” by virtue of her birth on September 11, 2001. She was one of the children born on 9/11, reports Tucson blogger David Abie Morales. She is featured in the book by Christine Pisera Naman, entitled Faces of Hope, Babies Born on 9/11, dedicated to all the mother who gave birth and to their babies born on the day the World Trade Towers in New York City were taken down in an act of terrorism.

Ironically, today her life ended in violence, as she fell under the attack of a gunman at a political function at a supermarket.

A neighbor was going to the Giffords event today, the Arizona Republic reports, and invited Christina along simply because she thought she would enjoy it, according to Christina’s uncle, Greg Segalini. Christina was newly elected to the student council at her school.

The event, an opportunity for constituents to meet Giffords and discuss any concerns they had related to the federal government, was an outdoor family friendly event.

A talented girl, Christina Green participated in many activities, ranging from ballet to baseball.

So sad. Only a whacked out leftist could shoot a child.

I can’t comprehend how anyone could kill this innocent baby. My heartfelt prayers go out to the parents and family of this angel. May God give them the strength to get through this senseless loss.

I hope there is a special ring of he** for this monster.

It just boggles the mind that someone could do this, not only to this child, but to Congresswoman Giffords and all of the others.

The nutcase claimed that he wanted tighter border security, but Representative Giffords was one of the strongest voices condemning President Obama's slow and weak response in sending troops to guard the border this past year, plus she went against her Democratic Party when it opposed Arizona's new immigration laws.

It's inconceivable that the life of the girl in your last pic has ended. I can't express the loss to us all by her absence. We are only bestowed with so much beauty in our lifetimes and must take measures to protect it.

In the Real American Society, an armed citizen would have kept this dangerous fool's toll to a minimum. Likely, his screwball ass would have been shot for some other transgression, to the benefit of everyone.

May she rest in peace and forgive us the sin of not being prepared to defend her.

Schizophrenia (which, in my layman's opinion, this probably is) doesn't afflict just leftists.

I also don’t post much these days. This horror has required me to say something which is obvious. This murderer couldn’t know he would kill this particular angel yet he set sights on the judge who was a fine man and the congresswoman who also was for strong borders. This psycho was steeped in marx and das kapital. They want total anarchy. He knew the dems would try to eat the republicans afterwards,furthering the decline.

I doubt he knew who the judge was but he absolutely saw that he was about to kill an innocent little girl, and he pulled the trigger. For that he deserves damnation.
